Charlie (チャーリー, Chārī) is one of the minor character of The Promised Neverland. He is a two-year-old orphan who formerly resided at Grace Field House Plant 3 as one of the many foster children of Isabella. Due to his age, Charlie is considered to be one of the house's "low-quality goods".[1]
Charlie now resides at a different plantation at Grace Field House under the parental care of Yukko along with Sherry, Eugene, Carol, Milly, and Phil after Grace Field House Plant 3 was burnt down.[2] His name is revealed in chapter 100.
History[]
Charlie was born at Grace Field in 2043 and sent to Plantation 3 a year later in 2044, growing up along with several other children under the parental care of Isabella. He sleeps in Isabella's room and was left behind with the younger children at Grace Field House, while the children over five years old made their escape. Along with Phil and other younger orphans like Carol, Eugene, Milly, and Sherry, Charlie now resides at a different plantation at Grace Field under the care of Yukko after the Grace Field House Plant 3 was burnt down.
Appearance[]
He has short silver hair, oval-shaped brown eyes, and a large, rounded nose. He wears the standard Grace Field uniform- a plain white long sleeved button-up shirt and white pants along with brown boots. His identification number is tattooed on the left side of his neck.
Personality[]
Not much of his personality is shown, but he appears to be an innocent, happy, and typical two-year-old who loves his family and enjoys playing tag and hide-and-seek with his siblings.

After Isabella failed to retrieve the older children, Charlie was seen sleeping with his other siblings who were left behind, being cared for by Isabella. Emma promises that she will come back within two years to rescue her siblings from Grace Field.

During spring 2049, he finally reunites with Emma again and cries tears of joy, even though she lost her memories.[5]
Relationships[]
Emma, Norman and Ray[]
Emma and Norman have a deep regard for Charlie, as he is a part of their "family". Upon learning that all of her sibling that had been shipped out were dead, Emma and Norman vow to escape with all of their younger siblings, despite most of them being under the age of five. Ray, however, is more skeptical of their plan and considers everyone other than Don and Gilda to be burdens to their escape plan.
Despite this, Ray really does care about his younger siblings, but believing that escaping with everyone was impossible, he had emotionally detached from them over the years and tried to avoid becoming too close to them so that he would not be as sad when they were inevitably killed. After Norman successfully came up with a plan to escape without sacrificing anyone, Ray admitted defeat and finally joined Emma in vowing to not leave anyone behind. They ultimately decided to escape with all of their siblings over the age of five and return to rescue their younger siblings within two years, before they were old enough to be shipped out.
Isabella and Yukko[]
Charlie did not know the real intentions of his caretaker, Isabella, and loved her very much as if she were his real mother. After fifteen of his older siblings escaped from Grace Field, Charlie was sent to a different plantation at Grace Field with a new mother, Yukko. Still not knowing the truth of the orphanage, it is assumed Charlie loved his new caretaker just as much as Isabella.
Jackie, Simon and Helen[]
After being relocated to a different plantation at Grace Field after the fire and destruction of Plant 3, Charlie was seen happily playing with the children at his new home, mainly Jackie, Simon and Helen. Charlie loved his new siblings, was kind to them and got along well with them. In return, they welcomed him into their family without a second thought.
Phil, Eugene, Sherry, Carol and Milly[]
Charlie is close to Phil, Eugene, Sherry, Carol and Milly as they are part of his family. He was often seen playing with them and cared deeply about them. After Plant 3 burned down, Charlie and Phil, Eugene, Sherry, Carol and Milly were relocated to the same plantation at Grace Field where they continued to be close.
Grace Field Escapees[]
Charlie and his older siblings loved each other very much. After fifteen of his older siblings escaped from Grace Field and Plant 3 burned down, Charlie was seen expressing concern of their whereabouts. Charlie did not know the truth of the orphanage nor did he know that his older siblings had actually escaped, and after being relocated to a different plantation at Grace Field, he was told that his fifteen older siblings had been sent to live with foster families. Despite leaving him behind, the Grace Field Escapees vowed to return within two years to rescue Charlie and their other younger siblings before they could be shipped out.
